Great News. Hopefully it eventuates. Voss needs a new direction and message.

Brilliant get. From memory Simmo was a huge Carlton fan growing up so hopefully that swayed him.
He'll be great value. Loving most of the off season moves being made by the club this year.


Yes , and the thing is several Clubs were eager to gain his services and in the end he chose Carlton . Holy shit , we may just start to become a destination Club .

Good move to get the coaches a coach, because let’s face it, they left a lot undone this year and losing a PF six goals up at QT speaks to a certain lack of polish. not sure Simpson was the go to given how pathetic WCE Eagles have performed for a few seasons but i wouldn’t really know how much that’s on him and how much other factors came into it like list manager and administrators overusing him.

a fresh set of eyes and a sounding board for the coaches is good. hopefully the start to question their ‘one wood’ fixation and start trying a few more tactics and innovations. no rest for the wicked and we were useless this year.
Dew was terrible at Gold Coast but a massive success as Fagan understudy
Bolton disaster at Carlton worked well with Macrae and Clarkson
Justin Leppitsch disaster at Lions huge success under Hardwick and Macrae

Simpson has won a flag although his last few years were not good that doesn't mean a lot

Simpson barracked for Carlton as a kid. As did Davies and Voss. Some decent content in the works I would've thought...

To make you all feel a bit old - at the time of the club's last premiership, Voss was aged 20, Simpson 19 and Davies 16.

Makes me feel ancient as that 95 Flag was the 9th in my lifetime .

Ok it's great that we have lured him, but.....what exactly are his duties under this position description?

It seems like an extremely vague appointment - he won't be at the club regularly, won't be involved on matchday.

So, what exactly is he going to do? And how exactly is it going to benefit Voss and Carlton as a whole?

I didn't realise Vossy was 50! Thought he was younger than me, and I was a teenager at our last flag.
